Do you know anyone who is afraid of spiders? Everyone is, right?
Then this is the perfect magic trick/prank for you.
My Pet Boris app is the scariest app for the Android. Inspired by Jim Pace's magic trick "The Web" where a spider magically appears on the back of your spectator's hand. Bound to get amazing reactions. The app uses Augmented reality merging real life objects with computer generated graphics to create a truly frightening effect.
You take a photo of the spectator's hand (secretly loading a plastic spider on the back of their hand) and place the phone on their palm to hold.
Your Pet Boris - an Australian Red back spider (black widow) creeps onto the screen and they can feel the vibrations as it walks. You can tap the screen and even slide your finger into the animation to scratch the spider's back. Boris walks off the screen.
You tell them that the Android phone has special sensors that when you wave your hand over the screen it makes the spider come back. He does.
You get them to wave their hand over the phone.
It is just then that they glimpse a realistic spider clinging to the back of their hand and they FREAK OUT!!
Bound to get BIG reactions. Finger tone and size can be set to suit your own. Start-up screen can be customised to suit your performance style. Camera capture, solid white or any image from your library can be used as a background.
